BOSTON – What’s happening between the pipes is beginning to become much more than a coincidence for the Boston Bruins.

After four spirited wins with Anton Khudobin in goal, Tuukka Rask had his number called and the B's responded with a medium work ethic, low energy game in a 3-2 loss to the Edmonton Oilers on Sunday night.

Things are developing into a pattern where the Bruins are a day late and a dollar short when Rask gets the call, and he now has a paltry eight of Boston’s 24 points on the season with a 3-8-2 record overall this year. Some of the work ethic stats were particularly discouraging with the Oilers outhitting the Bruins, and more alarmingly Edmonton blocked twice as many shots (11-to-5) despite holding a healthy shot attempt advantage in the game.
